  • Nikkaela9 toxic overwatch player (@Nikkaela9) reported

    if Spark ever changes their colors the overwatch league will die also youre really telling me dva has to wear a cast for her broken leg like 50 years in the future not only does she have like infinite money ITS LIKE 50 YEARS IN THE FUTURE

  • DigimonFan4Life Ramon Castro The Digimon Emperor (@DigimonFan4Life) reported

    @GinetteSosa21 FIFA 22 and wwe2k22 (barely over naruto to boruto shinobi striker and overwatch cuz I do the login stuff there)

  • lamar_noil AspireSZN | Lamar Noil (@lamar_noil) reported

    @CRK_FGC_OW_TF2 @wuuuva @OWAnonymous_ A conglomerate's mistakes will always leak to their smaller game. And even then, the Overwatch balance team is filled with people that have no idea how the game works. I'm surprised they managed to largely fix power creep in OW2. Too bad they can't keep a good patch for 2 weeks

  • LykkeDiBeppo 🌼 ylva 🌼 (@LykkeDiBeppo) reported

    I’ll delete this later lol, I’m just frustrated! I played Overwatch and stuff for years, never had these issues

  • Morten_Elgaard Morten Elgaard (@Morten_Elgaard) reported

    @IcepickInTheory Sorry to hear that. The multiple choice options where you don't know the outcome can be a problem. It also took a while for me to get that overwatch can make your troop stand right out in the open and be shot...

  • FirstPersonWin Kevin Karges (@FirstPersonWin) reported

    I think probably the biggest issue eSports are going to have is the naturally transient nature of the medium. People aren't going to play a slightly patched version of Overwatch in 50 years, but people will still be playing football ⚽🏈

  • Bizzstocks Steph (@Bizzstocks) reported

    @BlizzardCS @PlayOverwatch i just wanted to make you guys aware of an error in an overwatch two map. You have a city designed to look like NYC and in it you have a Firetruck that says NYFD. It’s actually FDNY and the trucks are wrong within the level. Figured I would let you know

  • FanFicWriting Hida (@FanFicWriting) reported

    In terms of Overwatch, I've come to the conclusion that guys in VC aren't worth listening to. If the first thing that comes out of their mouth isn't positive or helpful like call outs, I'm ******* muting on sight. I already have enough trust issues in this game.

  • sleepiestalex Alex @ Staring at my backlog again (@sleepiestalex) reported

    @jdrider02 I say this as someone who prefers single player games and dislikes most "games as service" types of stuff. Really the only exceptions have been MH, Splatoon, and Overwatch. 1 I played mostly single player, 1 I'm still relatively new, and the other I havent touched in years

  • HaVokGMG HaVok (@HaVokGMG) reported

    Overwatch been causing problems for anyone else recently? Done at least 20 speed tests and my internet is perfect but i still dc from almost every game

  • lamar_noil AspireSZN | Lamar Noil (@lamar_noil) reported

    @CRK_FGC_OW_TF2 @wuuuva @OWAnonymous_ Lmao wtf did I just read I literally liked your comment + every Blizzard game has indeed lost their original touch, it's not a secret. Overwatch and their other games are goods, yet they are ruined by their incompetency to fix their mistakes the 840th time

  • astrologywhore8 lill (@astrologywhore8) reported

    im so sorry if im lagging ive been so addicted to overwatch send help

  • barcode_ow Barcode (@barcode_ow) reported

    @JWantedL Think we are all just coming down from the intense high of ow2 and the crash just feels worse because of how down bad regular overwatch is and has been

  • makumakumaku912 Gal bursten it 💎🐰 (@makumakumaku912) reported

    I don't even play overwatch but everytime i see Jesse mccree i'm like damn my daddy issues just slips out and i'm suddenly into relationships 👁👄👁 He's so pretty 😔

  • THEATOMBOMB035 TheBomb.Com 🔞 (@THEATOMBOMB035) reported

    @Strange32216388 I agree with you. Someone did a Video on The fall of Battleborn "Death of a videogame: Battleborn" it's on YouTube and it really sheds light on how once Overwatch outshined Battleborn, because BLIZZARD made it (different times) they just kept trying to 'fix' what was not broken

  • ThisAintLexOng this is a killua stan acc (@ThisAintLexOng) reported

    Overwatch gives me anger issues

  • shimbius Shimbius 🔜 Momocon 2022 (@shimbius) reported

    Never mind Overwatch tournament got indefinitely postponed because of blizzard login issues lmao

  • THEATOMBOMB035 TheBomb.Com 🔞 (@THEATOMBOMB035) reported

    @Strange32216388 Greabox was trying to fix Battleborn When Overwatch outdid them on day one, trying to fix things that weren't broken and in the end I think the head lead started screwing up things behind the scenes with a "Everything's fine" mentally. I will have to go back and watch the vid.

  • ScorchCakeTM hot topic - 🏳️‍⚧️ (@ScorchCakeTM) reported

    im gonna assume its because the server farms are in different locations but ive never dc'd in apex nearly as much as overwatch. i still lag and all that but only ever dc'd a handful of times

  • _thrilliam Bill (@_thrilliam) reported

    My favourite thing about competitive Overwatch is when you wait 12 minutes to get into a game and then either someone immediately leaves or the server closes due to an error.

  • hotbabot HOTBA Enthusiast (@hotbabot) reported

    @sean_mmills @overwatchleague Hello Mr. Sean Miller I am big boss man of Toronto Defiant, and there seems to be a glitch with the standings where Toronto aren’t the #1 seed, so that needs to be fixed. Also, can you pretty please put Sado back in the league, he should be owner of Overwatch I think.

  • ValeneusVT Valen 🎞 | Predebut ENVtuber (@ValeneusVT) reported

    Just ended ! Had an internet problem during Overwatch, y’know- as it does, but not before loosing 5 games in a row :’) But ! We then had success in Phasmophobia so it’s fine :D

  • vvertaa kade (@vvertaa) reported

    @KingGamur so like i could make a crash course type video but instead of animation id use overwatch and i could go over the korean war and the battle for the capital using control point (yk cuz seoul was captured 4 times) and itd just like switch...

  • Casual_Jacob_ Jacob 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ (@Casual_Jacob_) reported

    @Medros OK, so I play games that take up download speed as well (FFXIV, Overwatch) and there are two other people in the household streaming videos and/or music. Plus, I wasn't streaming and just standing still in-game and getting severe lag. So, no, couldn't stream.

  • hurtznick Nicholas Hurtz. (@hurtznick) reported

    @tmh4Cp5SdNzgkhz @GBO2EN I'm sorry if I am missing the point of your tweet, as I am only using google translate.From my position the delay isn't the problem with GBO2 PC, its the lack of communication that's infuriating.From the NT Evolution was allot of fun,and better then Overwatch IMHO. SDGA ill see.

  • JWantedL Wanted (@JWantedL) reported

    Streaming Overwatch for 3+ hours is actually impossible. Trying to cope by saying OW 2 is going to fix everything is just toxic at this point. I don't know if my fellow Overwatch streamers & content creators can relate to this but man it's depressing

  • henloworld__ kc (@henloworld__) reported

    @SapphireScarIet the other issue is that every competitive game that i can think of has the shittiest matchmaking or mmr system ever tf2, league ranked, dbd, overwatch, siege, literally all of them i constantly go against people that are so much better than me that i cant possibly learn

  • AntoineLettuce8 Antoine Lettuce (@AntoineLettuce8) reported

    @DrSigma2003 @GamerSoapBox @marlisjun Not your fault of Sony is the hobo of gaming industry. No more crash ip for ponies, no more Spyro, cod on game pass , diablo on game pass , overwatch on game pass

  • DuviHorny HornyDuvi🔞 (@DuviHorny) reported

    @CumminHamLewds your problem is still interacting with people who do anything more than just play the game, and even playing overwatch gets side-eye from me

  • eB0NES vibin (@eB0NES) reported

    silently waiting for valve to fix the team fortress situation so we as a society can stop pretending overwatch is good
